Investment Q&A

Q: Bep.un and bepc have both have a nice run over the past few months. Would you be comfortable adding new money to either of these stocks?

Q: The preferred market is a little odd. CPD consists of 76% rate reset preferred yet is hurt by rising 5 year government rates. Which, of course, their future dividend is based off of. Do you have a feel for this and at what point does CPD become a buy given rising government of Canada bond rates?

Q: Please name and rank five Canadian stocks providing dividends > 2% that are likely to experience strong growth over the next five years. (Please exclude GSY as it's already owned and I'm assuming would be on the list.) Thank you.

What do you think of this company, in view of an increase demand for shipping on the great lakes and seaway. May be not for fabulous growth, but a safe and steady dividend.

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i,
There are two symbols for dividend 15 split core they show up as DFN and DF .... DF pays a higher dividend. Could you explain the difference between the two and if there is a difference or advantage of one over the other.
How do you see their dividend going forward. I am looking for relatively safe income for a small position.

Any other suggestion in this category

Thanks
Jim

Q: could I get your opinion on the above company please and thank you

Q: Hello Team,

Given your past responses it does not seem like you are fans of Colliers or at least would allocate capital to other names first (and don’t like the amount of debt they carry).

I don’t understand this and look at the company as a smaller, younger BAM for the following reasons:

- Their IM is growing by over 50% yoy.
- revenue has compounded over the last decade while ebitda margins have improved from 9.3% to 14%.
- their acquisitions of Harrison st, basalt, antirion have diversified their offering to be more infrastructure than only RE.
- they have already proven to successfully expanded into engineering serivcies.
- Their goal is to have over 65% reoccurring revenue by 2025
- Jay Hennick has proven track record with the stock providing compounded annually return of +20% for 20 years.


I could go on and on but given the tailwinds for alternative asset managers (similar to BAM) and proven track record. I don’t understand how this isn’t in your core stable of beloved Canadian names with the likes of BAM, CSU, TOI, ECN, ATD, GSY, etc.

I would love to hear your expanded feedback on the name
